Film No. 94 (2017) December 4th. 8.10 PM NETFLIX Lounge Chair, Leederville.
"It'll be nice to spend time with dad, you know; I didn't get to spend a lot of time with him growing up". (Danny tells his girlfriend the days ahead, in the company of his aging dad, might be fun).
Matthew (Ben Stiller) and Danny (Adam Sandler) Meyerowitz continue to strive to gain positive recognition from their father, Harold (Dustin Hoffman); positive recognition that's never coming. But then there's an incident, it's a game changer. Just maybe there'll be some healing of old emotional wounds. The real game changer may be the fact that Netflix could be about to receive its first best film Oscar. It's all in the finely tuned Noah Baumbach written dialogue, dare I say it, funnier and with more depth than modern day Woody Allen. There I said it. Stiller is Stiller but Sandler is more, Punch-Drunk Love more. 10GUMS.
